PX-R and Abu Villain ML Debate Spool it up or pack it for winter

hello PX-R arrived today and I'm curious as to some different tactics used to spool one with braid Typically I have been rolling half the spool with tape. Tying my knot then taping the knot down over the exposed spool with tape with a slight overlap resulting in 1 layer of tape on the spool with the braid knot sammiched between However looking at this shallow spool. I am concerned with the space I'll lose with tape And I don't want a mono backing Quite possibly I lose less room with the tape as I would with a backing so my method is probably the best for usable capacity of braid Ideas ? I saw one guy who ties through the mill holes on spool but that's a cut line gamble Thanks guys

Interesting thoughts Now I am worried about my gear Though it's more of a shed than a garage the temperature is Definatly at natures design

I'd go 150 reel And a 50$ store brand rod on sale Walmart.com typically has great deals on reels My first was a lews speed spool for like 130$ or so And a 50$ cabelas guide series IM6 rod MH fast

Thanks. I hope someday to be proficient at it. i basically just throw hooked things in the water, some go far, some fall short, some hit trees, and sometimes, rarely, a fish will bite it, lol

Crap! This sounds like so much fun Wish I could play Have fun fellas

First off It was sunny and 70 here in wv yesterday 36 today Froze my a off. No bites But I got to take these 3 ladies with me

My cast is goofy I start behind my right shoulder with both hands Left hand palming the right holding the rod blank just in front I throw forward from about 2 o clock Once I reach shoulder level I stop moving my arm and flick the wrist and release Tilting the reel counter clockwise to reach a vertical spool position It's the only thing that works for me

hello I have a PX-R on the way and an abu villain ML To mate it with I plan to use PP 15lb red Plan to throw small worms and finesse plastic primarily Mabye a pocket frog in open ish water Sound good ?

I guess the theory would be to have specific rods leaning towards specific powers and actions to match technique Myself? I have 10+ rods to take and started out the season taking just that I don't have the skill our ability to properly fish a worm on a hook let alone 10 separate technique specific tackles I take 4 1 caster for plastics with a 2/0 hook tied on for smaller 1 caster for plastics with a 5/0 hook for bigger worms and stuff 1 caster with a frog or something And I always have 1 faithful spinner so when my luck if nest free casting falls short I can just throw a few with the spinner til I relax

Lol! That's all I have. For now This is the first year that fishing went from a hobby once in a while to a obsession I want to persue fully That lil dinky rod at the top was my only one for years it was an eagle claw collapsible ultralight I used til one day I Hooked a mamma fish and snapped it That's when I got the bug

I don't have the vertical space to store them upright They don't flex much just the one medium a little

Hello, I had been searching for a rod holder for my building for some time, its a metal wall building, one day i was looking at an old set of atv ramps i have with a broken hanger, and thought, Ill cut it down and use it. self tapped it to the wall and used gorilla tape to soften the corners, hows it look?

I'm gonna grab a small spool to test Compare it to PP lb for lb on strength

Here is a screen
